Kevin Costner and Amber Heard star in the first 3 Days To Kill trailer

I’ve never thought of Kevin Costner as an action star, but it seems he might be taking the Liam Neeson route to career revival with the action film 3 DAYS TO KILL. In the first trailer, there’s plenty of tough guy assassin stuff from Costner as he fights and punches his way through Europe. Sound familiar? At least he’s not trying to save his daughter. I’ve always liked Kevin Costner and even though 3 DAYS TO KILL feels awfully familiar, it still looks like a good time, thanks in large part to Costner’s natural charm and charisma.

In 3 DAYS TO KILL, Kevin Costner plays a top government assassin that gets diagnosed with terminal cancer. With his end in sight, he resigns from his job to spend more time with his wife and daughter. But when the government approaches him with an opportunity to cure his cancer in exchange for one last hit, the offer is too good to pass up. 3 DAYS TO KILL stars Kevin Costner, Amber Heard, Connie Nielson and Hailie Steinfeld. The McG directed film will hit theaters on February 21st, 2014.
